aka Branded to Kill
A hit-man, with a fetish for sniffing boiling rice, fumbles his latest job, putting him into conflict with his treacherous wife, with a mysterious woman eager for death and with the phantom-like hit-man known only as Number One.
Wildly imaginative absurdist Noir parody, a tour de force of surreal images and unexpected plot twists.
Halliwell **: "A strange but enjoyable thriller, with its quirky originality, odd angles and odder hero as well as some effective suspense."
Maltin ***: "Stylish and surreal deconstruction of the Yakuza genre...Typically irreverent and subversive film from cult director Suzuki is also fairly incoherent but technically dazzling."
